Remember, that choosing to stay on the ground is a choice to facilitate a relationship, to honor it. You don't play a game or color a picture with a child to show your superiority. Rather, you choose to limit yourself so as to facilitate and honor that relationship... It is not about winning and losing, but about love and respect. William Paul Young
About This Quote

Every person wants to be loved and appreciated. Everyone wants to feel good about themselves. But, sadly, only a few of us are able to find this in our own lives. It is because we have set our standards so high for ourselves that we fail to see the love and appreciation around us.

The truth is that when we look for love in all the wrong places, we miss it everywhere else. In order for us to truly feel loved, we must learn how to let go of our expectations and embrace the love that is always there for us.
